Hi, we’re renovating our rental bathroom with the b/w theme and going with black matte finishes. The unexpected challenge—there’s no straight permanent black matte shower rod for the bathroom.

The ones out there are over $125 and will come in late. I was wondering if I bought those finials/black shower brackets and paired it with a black window rod, would that do the trick? Would it rust in the shower?

I did think of spray-painting a bronze shower curtain rod so that when it gets rubbed/distressed, it’d still have the dark look.

Please help! (Leads for straight black matte shower curtain rods that are drillable is also appreciated).
